💡 Highlights
Please read the rc1 changes that are also included in this pre-release.
The rc2 add support of rsync (#301). Now, for specific protocols (such as scp, sftp and rsync), instead of having a dedicated option for all the plugins, they share a new --protocol option, which will permit adding more protocols if needed, without requiring adding new named options. The previous options are still supported and will keep working, even if the documentation has been updated to only reference --protocol.
We also add a new per-account option: egress session multiplexing (usage of the ControlPath and ControlMaster ssh client options), for accounts opening a large number of connections to the same hosts, such as is the case with e.g. Ansible usage. You'll find it in the accountModify documentation.
Worth noting is also a new plugin: groupSetServers, to permit setting the ACL (asset list) of a group in one shot, to attain a given wanted list, instead of having to rely in several groupAddServer and groupDelServer calls.
A more complete list of changes can be found below, for an exhaustive (and boring) list, please refer to the commit log.
